Hindi Romantic Comedy

This Hindi film is said to be a remake of 'Nine Months' and to be derivative of certain Hindi films, but not having seen any of them I am not entitled to comment on that. (I felt an undertone of 'Sleepless in Seattle', not a bad choice to emulate). In 'Salaam Namaste' practically everyone is young and successful and gorgeous, so it is admittedly an escapist fantasy. One could criticize that but on the other hand it's a hard film to dislike. The stars are wonderful together, and Melbourne, Australia, is a major character the way New York often is. Living in Melbourne, the main characters deal with certain issues that they might not face -or would deal with differently- had they stayed in India. Likewise, traditional Indian viewers might find some elements a bit shocking but I don't think the filmmakers set out to put off anyone. Yes, it's manipulative and predictable, but it's a 'feel-good' movie that works. If you can handle a little sugar, I recommend it.

It is a light comedic Hindi film with a study of "modern " lifestyle

I have just returned from India, on holiday, and discovered that this is a film that just about everybody over there has seen. In fact many people talked about the film because I was from Australia. Because of this I went to see the film with some Indian friends and enjoyed it. It is not the greatest film I have ever seen, but it doesn't pretend to be . It is a fun light comedic Hindi film with a study of "modern" lifestyle. I am looking forward to the Australian release with English subtitles, so I can pick up some things I missed due to my lack of knowledge of Hindi.I am also anticipating finding Ben and Jerry's dark Belgian chocolate ice cream somewhere here. One thing I should advise Indian guys if they come to Australia. You may be surprised to find that most Australian girls are not so fast, and that prostitutes are not found at suburban bus stops.

Making of a typical Indian romantic comedy.

How they came up with this movie: Aditya: ...But you know it gotta be new.Siddharth: Lets see what we can do? How about a new location?A: Oh yes! In the past movies, We've been to London, new york, LA.. how about Melbourne this time?S: Fantastic! and we can have a couple of beach songs there, you know thats the latest trend these days.A: OK Lets talk about the story. I've an idea, lets do a different kind of romantic movie.S: What different?A: How about if we make a modern day love story, girl and boy both living outside India. That way we can also capture those NRI sentiments you know?S: Whoa whoa. But that we have already seen in so many other movies lately. Need to add something more to it.A: How about if the boy and the girl live together? S: Live-in relationships? Indian audience will never accept that.A: Ha! They are going' to jump on it, it will be a fresh story, wholly new idea, you know. Boy and girl stay together, fall in love, have sex, and then the girl becomes pregnant.S: You are talking about "nine-months"? A: whatever! how many in India have watched nine months? forget it. people are just going to love the idea.S: OK so the story is finalized. What about the music?A: Yeh, we need one or two dance item numbers, one wedding song?S: why a wedding song?A: You don't understand! its that superstition thing!S: OK OK! But how are we going to have dance numbers when the heroine is pregnant?A: Don't worry! Audience won't care. They come only to see the dance and songs. Nobody gives a damn even if she dances while giving birth to her baby.A: I've got this gut feeling, in last movie remember, people loved the comedy. We have to have that in this movie too.S: But its a serious movie. How can it have comedy?A: Then arrange some part time TV actor. You know those anchors, they can speak so much on the spot you don't even need to worry about writing dialogs for them.S: Thats fine. How about the cast?A: Lets see, Preity is hot these day. See if we get dates from Preity, else go for Rani. Male actor, I don't think Shahrukh is that good after Swades. and Aamir, just don't approach him, he'll demand the god-damn script first.S: Then how about Saif.A: He'll do. Anything else?S: We'll see that on the sets. Lets start working on it.
